[Dispatch=Reporter Yuha] ATEEZ's "know the taste" resonated properly. The group proved its presence on domestic and global charts.
ATEEZ released its 15th mini album "GOLDEN HOUR : Part.6" on the 13th at 2 p.m. The new album received a strong response immediately after its release.
It swept the top of major domestic music charts. It recorded No. 1 on the Hanteo Chart real-time album chart. It also reached the top of the Circle Chart real-time retail album chart.
Global response is also hot. The title track "UP" reached No. 1 on the iTunes Top Songs chart in 11 countries including Austria, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, and the Philippines.
The new album started from the message "crash to begin." It accepted collision not as an end but as a new beginning, and contained the will to overcome one's own limits.
"UP" is a song that stands out for its intense brass and explosive bass. On the heavy sound, confident energy was added. It maximized ATEEZ's characteristic unrestrained charm.
The performance is also intense. It is characterized by smoothly extending arm movements and disciplined motions. The members' seamless group choreography elevated the stage's completeness.
The point choreography is a motion of pointing upward with one's fingers. It visually expressed the message of going beyond limits and moving toward a higher place.
Meanwhile, ATEEZ ranked No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard main album chart "Billboard 200" with its previous work "GOLDEN HOUR : Part.5." This marks its third time at the top. Domestic initial sales surpassed 1.88 million copies.
